Name of Invention: Pet Spa
Name of Inventor: Harry Gone
Date of invention: 2008
Purpose of the invention: Keep cats clean and reduces shedding.
Brief history:
Harry Gone wanted a cat ever since he was a little boy. However, he has terrible allergies to cats and he does not like to clean up cat fur. As he was sitting in his car one day at the automatic car wash he thought how great it would be if there was something that would wash cats in the same manner. You see, people who are allergic to cats are allergic to the saliva and dander found on the fur of cats. If it was possible to give a cat a bath on a regular basis then it would be possible for people with cat allergies to own them. He knew what an ordeal it was to bathe a cat, so he came up with an invention to help cat lovers every where.
